In Brief
A review petition was filed challenging the Supreme Court's dismissal of a Special Leave Petition against the High Court's affirmance of a trial court acquittal. The petitioner argued the dismissal was erroneous. The Supreme Court, after examining the grounds raised in the review petition, found no error apparent on the record that would justify interference with its previous order. Accordingly, the review petition was dismissed, affirming that review jurisdiction is confined to correcting manifest errors on the face of the record.
